Services

Preconstruction

Our preconstruction services focus on transforming client visions into actionable plans while maintaining budget integrity. We begin by listening to client goals, then leverage cost estimating, value engineering, and risk assessment to create comprehensive project roadmaps. This phase ensures alignment between design intent and financial feasibility before construction begins.

Virtual Design & Construction

VDC services enable clients to experience their completed structures through immersive 3D modeling before construction starts. This technology identifies potential design conflicts early, optimizes material usage, and streamlines coordination between stakeholders. Our virtual simulations improve project accuracy while reducing costly field changes during construction phases.

Design-Build

Our design-build methodology consolidates project responsibility under a single contract, pairing clients with curated design teams of architects and engineers. This collaborative approach accelerates project timelines, enhances cost control, and ensures seamless integration between design and construction phases for complex developments.

Construction

Full-scale construction services cover every project phase from groundbreaking to occupancy. Our operations teams implement rigorous quality control, safety protocols, and scheduling discipline across diverse sectors including healthcare, education, and commercial developments. We maintain 0.79 EMR safety performance through dedicated on-site safety management.

SPOTLIGHT Projects

SPOTLIGHT division handles smaller projects under $2 million with the same operational rigor as major developments. Services include facility upgrades, infrastructure improvements, and rapid-response construction needs. Projects average 11 months duration, with completed volumes ranging from $41K to $2.8M in 2022.

Worked with John Breshears and Monteith Construction on the new UNC Wilmington Dining Hall. Very impressed with their professionalism and their desire to not just get it done but get it done right. Look forward to more projects like this one with Monteith.
